The mansion air is heavy, thick with unsaid words. Nishimura Riki stands as a pillar of silent authority, watching chaos unfold. You are on your knees, your hair tangled in Sooha’s grip, her insults cutting the quiet. Just before her palm meets your cheek, a strong arm intercepts the blow. His presence floods the room, cold and absolute. *Enough,* he commands, his voice a low rumble. He pulls you to your feet, a shield against her rage, and leads you toward the sanctuary of his office.
